- Some Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2 owners are reporting a new app installation progress indicator that is visible in the app drawer icon.
- This indicator makes it easy to track the progress of a new app download and app updates through the Google Play Store without needing to check the app listing.
The Google Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2 are Google’s take on making a great smartwatch for Android users. Google has been adding features to the Pixel Watch through its Pixel Feature Drop updates, making the watches perform better than what they started off as.
